## Abstract

This paper proposes a new framework for semantic segmentation of objects in videos. We address the label inconsistency problem of deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) by exploiting the fact that videos have multiple frames; in a few frames the object is confidently-estimated (CE) and we use the information in them to improve labels of the other frames. Given the semantic segmentation results of each frame obtained from DCNN, we sample several CE frames to adapt the DCNN model to the input video by focusing on specific instances in the video rather than general objects in various circumstances. We propose offline and online approaches under different supervision levels. In experiments our method achieved great improvement over the original model and previous state-of-the-art methods.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
